Abbot’s Moss is a lowland acid bog within the Delamere Forest. It was described by Charles Rothschild as “a place we should make every effort to secure”. The SPNR was interested in the insects and plants of the Moss and great sundew and the large heath butterfly, in particular, are highlighted on the site’s survey documents from 1913. It is now managed by Cheshire Wildlife Trust.
